The Bingo Boutique Casino

Overview

Review last updated – October 2017

The Bingo Boutique is part of an extensive group of bingo and slots providers running on the Jumpman Gaming Limited platform. It holds dual licenses with the AGCC in Alderney, and the UKGC in the United Kingdom- it uses eCOGRA as its ADR for UK players lodging complaints. The Bingo Boutique is platform mates with over 84 other bingo and slots sites and full details of all of its sister properties can be found on the UKGC license page for Jumpman Gaming Limited. Bingo Hombre offer a limited range of games, slots and bingo by: NYX Gaming, Quickspin, Chance Interactive, Foxium, PariPlay, NextGen Gaming, iSoftBet, IWG, Gamery, ELK Studios, Net Entertainment and Microgaming. The Bingo Boutique’s site design is feminine and clearly targeted at women – it rather sterotypically presents women as being shopaholics which is rather outdated today. The colour palette is: sickeningly sweet pastels in pink and blue and shopping bags and coathangers feature. The Bingo Boutique have no outstanding complaints at any of the major gambling portals.

Trustworthiness

- 3 / 10

The Bingo Boutique are Not Recommended as a result of their dormancy/inactivity clause which we consider to be predatory. It states that players that have not been active for 180 days will receive an email to that effect and then all funds in their account will be forfeit to the company. Dormancy/Inactivity should never be used an excuse to seize a full balance. Furthermore The Bingo Boutique do not exclude Progressive Jackpots from their maximum withdrawal limits - since Progressive Jackpot winnings are paid by the software provider and not the site operator, there is no excuse for withholding full payment from Progressive Jackpot winners. In addition the T&Cs state that players that self-exclude at Rocket Bingo will have their accounts at sister properties closed but no details are given as to what these numerous properties actually are.

Closing Thoughts

The Bingo Boutique are part of the Jumpman Gaming group - a very large range of slots and bingo sites. The welcome bonus offered is somewhat disappointing and by no means guarantees players any sort of prize at all. Of greater concern is the predatory dormancy clause implemented by this group and the fact that they do not exclude progressive jackpot wins from their maximum withdrawals. Restricted countries are not given in alphabetical order on site which makes this difficult for players to navigate. The Terms and Conditions pages are very difficult to read because much of the text is masked by the dark colours around the edges of the pages - not really user friendly. It should be noted that only 5 withdrawals can be made in a single week at this venue. Suffice to say there are other operators offering more hospitable conditions for players and greater incentives for player loyalty.
